Le Pont Noir part 9 (Lightpainting on Hive) - Lightpainting Photo Quest competition

over 2 years ago (Edited)

Hi everyone,

This photo was taken on a site called Le Pont Noir (the black bridge), a disused pedestrian bridge in the middle of nowhere.

I worked with a pair of LEE filters (a pink one and a green one), a powerful flashlight, a gimbal head to make the camera rotate on its axis and a cardboard to cap/uncap the lens when wanted. After that, I made an abstract light calligraphy using several light tools.

Salut à tous,

Ce cliché a été pris sur un site appelé Le Pont Noir, un pont piéton désaffecté au milieu de nulle part.

J'ai travaillé avec deux filtres LEE (un rose et un vert), une lampe torche puissante, une tête pendulaire pour faire tourner l'appareil photo sur son axe et un morceau de carton pour cacher/décacher l'objectif. Par la suite, j'ai tracé une calligraphie lumineuse abstraite à l'aide d'outils divers.

Here's the bridge with a simple lighting using the backlight scanner made by @lacelight :

WHAT IS LIGHTPAINTING?
Lightpainting is a photographic technique in which exposures are made by moving a hand-held light source while taking a long exposure photograph, either to illuminate a subject or to shine a point of light directly at the camera, or by moving the camera itself during exposure. Nothing is added or removed in post processing.
